Tottenham investigating claim of racist abuse towards South Korean star Son Heung-min

Tottenham are investigating a report of racist abuse towards South Korean forward Son Heung-min during the club's 1-0 defeat by Manchester United on Sunday.

Spurs, whose manager Mauricio Pochettino recently said he wanted to 'kill racism', are working with a season ticket holder who tweeted about the abuse mid-game.

Among a series of tweets detailing what happened, supporter James Dickens wrote: 'I've not experienced racism at football for about 15 years. But today at @SpursOfficial was hideous.
